Specify settings of an HTTP or SOCKS proxy server if you want the traffic to go through it when PyCharm accesses the Internet. The HTTP proxy works for both HTTP and HTTPS connections.
These settings affect the connections that PyCharm establishes to download plugins, check license validity, synchronize IDE settings between instances, and perform other tasks for the IDE itself.
